How far is the Dehradun dog show from Mussoorie?

About 35 km by road (approximate). Dehradun lies south of Mussoorie, down the hillside from the ridge. The road winds down the slope in long bends.

The KCI listing names the city, not the ground, so the distance is to Dehradun and the real figure depends on the venue.

Is a one-day show practical from the hills of Mussoorie?

The show is on a single date, Sunday 6 December 2026, so the whole outing has to fit inside one day. Phone the secretary for the start time before you decide when to leave Mussoorie.

Mussoorie sits at roughly 2,000 metres, and December is cold there. Wrap up for an early departure and expect milder air on the lower ground of the Doon valley.

What about my dog while I am away from Mussoorie?

Pet policy is not listed, so arrange for someone at home in Mussoorie to look after your dog for the day. If you hope to bring a dog anyway, put the question to the club first.

Could a dog from Mussoorie be entered?

Entries go through Doon Valley Kennel Club. The listing gives no entry rules or closing date, so the window may already have shut. The secretary’s mobile number is printed on the event guide.

What should I settle before leaving Mussoorie?

  • The time the first ring opens, which the KCI listing does not give
  • The venue in Dehradun, since only the city is listed
  • How you will make the descent, as the road is about 35 km by road each way (approximate)
  • How the 72nd and 73rd shows are divided across the day

Are there other town guides for the Dehradun show?

Mussoorie is the hill route into Dehradun, and three more towns have guides of their own. Doiwala is about 22 km by road out on the Rishikesh side, Vikasnagar about 37 km to the north-west, and Rishikesh about 42 km to the south-east (all by road, approximate).

Which breed copes with Mussoorie’s winters?

Mussoorie has cold winters and mild summers, so a thick-coated breed developed for cold sits more easily there than one built for heat. Read the breed guide for each dog that appeals and note its coat care and exercise needs, because steep hill lanes test a dog’s stamina differently from flat ground.

Looking for a puppy in Mussoorie?

Ask to see the KCI registration paper for the litter and meet the mother in person. Browse KCI-registered puppies from verified breeders on Pupps & Stud, or book a puppy buyer consultation to compare breeds before you commit.

Do you breed dogs in Mussoorie?

Breeders in Mussoorie can register on Pupps & Stud and list their KCI-registered puppies. A clear photo of both parents helps a buyer who has just seen the breed in a show ring.
